Wow is the word....
I never expected second sem to be so freaking awesome!!
Yeah how unexpected is that sentence huh? After all the whining and fussing over PJ's awesomeness I'm finally beginning to appreciate that studying in Setapak, while not nearly as wondeful as my experience in foundation, is still gonna be pretty great :) I have 2 really cool subjects. Which is good by the way cause all of us need a break from the drama of taking maths subjects. I mean I know it's gonna be the pinnacle of whatever future career I choose but it ain't all that exciting you know?
Oral Communication is really cool. We have no lectures and no tutorials. Its all practical work. It involves a lot of talking and making noise which if course I'm exceptionally good at hehe. And our lecturer is soooo lame and funny. Best of all, his name is Mr. Selvaraj. Which happens to be the father's name of yours truly :) He actually asked who among us in the class was his 'daughter'. And my classmates are all really sporting and funny. I really do look forward to those classes. Never once have I checked my watch in that class. Shu and Anna know how rarely that happens :)
The other class I quite like is Academic Writing. It has just been too long since I've been writing on a continuous basis other than blogging. And blogging isn't quite creative writing, if you know what I mean. The other day in class I started writing a narrative passage and just couldn't stop. My lecturer took a look at my page and said that it was already too long. And I was only halfway done :) Got a little excited I suppose. So that class is quite awesome as well.
My other 2 subjects are nothing to shout about. Pengajian Malaysia at this stage is simply restudying history. But at least I'm actually hearing BM again. The quality of my BM must have severely deteriorated by now I'm sure. Since the end of SPM I've been speaking, reading, and doing pretty much everything in English. Which calls for an improvement in my English of course. Unfortunately is has also caused a decline in my once 'all right' BM.
My other subject, Sun Tzu's Art of War and Business Strategies is quite an all right subject I think. The only problem is my lecturer. When she starts to speak, its pretty much guaranteed that I'll get a headache within 3 minutes. She just has such a shrill, piercing and extremely jarring voice. Using a mike doesn't exactly improve the situation :S Not to mention her tendency to enunciate and draaaaaag every word she says. Not in a good way :S Our poor ears...
But other than that I'm really having a good time. Still missing the monkeys back in PJ but I'm much better compared to last semester. I have a good feeling about degree :) Turns out it ain't all that bad. It might have something to do with the fact that we have more than just a few more friends THANK GOD. I mean I love Anna and Shu to pieces but its kinda taxing having to look at the same faces for a very long time hehe. Gosh I sound so mean right now. So just so you guys know, Anna and Shu both agreed with me on that :)
So well, problem half solved :)
I am no longer whining and complaining.
Sem 2...bring it on ;)
